Hobbies and Interests - I haven't had much "free time" in years, and I pull all-nighters about twice a week just to stay on top of things, because my pornstar career and my buttkicking website are both fulltime jobs that I refuse to let anyone else handle for me. But whenever I can sneak some time to myself, I like honing my skills in Photoshop, upgrading and tweaking my computer hardware, and having friends over for 'Unreal Tournament' fragfests on my LAN.

Well, liquid helium does have a temperature of around 4 K, as opposed to liquid nitrogen at 77 K. However, for cooling a radiant device, you want to absorb as much thermal energy as possible.
The enthalpy of vaporization for He is 0.083 kJ/mol. That is, one mol of He will absorb 83 joules of energy in transitioning from liquid to gas. Conversely, the value for N is 2.79 kJ/mol. So, liquid N can absorb nearly 33 times more energy for cooling purposes. While the cold gas (4 K for He, 77 K for N) can also contribute to cooling, the gas phase is not efficient for thermal conduction.
Thus, even though liquid He costs much more and is harder to physically handle, I contend that it offers no advantages for cooling over the cheaper liquid N solution.
